14.2 SAFETY EQUIPMENTNo express or implied warranty of safety shall result from publication of, or compliance withthese rules and regulations. They are intended as a guide for the conduct of the sport and are inno way a guarantee against injury or death to participants, spectators or others. Whenever thereis a conflict between a safety provision provided herein and any other rule, the safety provisionshall take precedence.

14.2.1 HelmetINEX requires that all drivers must wear a racing type helmet of current standards of ‘2015 or2020 Snell “SA” rating or later any time he/she is on the track for slow laps, practice or racingconditions. Snell “M” rated helmets will not be allowed. Drivers without a helmet meeting theabove minimum Snell standards will not be permitted on the racetrack in a Legends Car. Ahelmet is designed to absorb energy once. If a significant impact has occurred to the helmet, it ishighly recommended that it be sent back to the manufacturer for evaluation. Helmets are subjectto inspection at each event by the technical inspector or other official. A full-face helmet ishighly recommended14.2.1.1 Helmets with Radio Harnesses

14.2.1.1 Helmets with Radio HarnessesMany INEX drivers compete in other racing series’ that permit the use of radios. If a drivershould use that helmet to compete in an INEX-sanctioned event, he/she must duct tape theconnector end to the back of their helmet. This is the only way in which this helmet will bepermitted without actually removing the entire radio harness from the helmet. Radio wiringharnesses are not allowed in any Legends Car. Radio ear plugs will be prohibited. Two-wayradios are not permitted at Slinger Speedway. A Raceceiver will be used only at tracks thatmandate them. Slinger Speedway requires that all Legends cars be equipped with afunctioning Raceceiver model SW1600 tuned to channel 1565 Failure to comply withRaceceiver requirements will result in a penalty. Penalties will be imposed in accordance withSECTION 4 - PENALTIES.

14.2.2 Fire SuitsAll drivers must wear a fire-retardant suit of Nomex or equivalent material any time they are onthe track. A double layer or more is highly recommended. Fire suits must be labeled flameretardant (made of flame-retardant materials or have a S.F.I. patch). Damaged suits may bedisallowed by the inspector.

14.2.3 Safety HarnessAll cars must have an INEX approved type of five- or six-point racing harness that is equippedwith a quick release buckle. Be sure to regularly check your safety belts for damage such asfraying, tearing, etc. If this should occur, the safety belts should be replaced immediately. AnINEX inspector may require replacement of the belts if they are damaged. INEX endorses thebelt manufacturer’s recommendation that the belts be changed two (2) years after the datestamped on the SFI tag regardless of the number of times the car has been raced. The safetybelts are similar to a helmet, in that they are designed for protection in only one major impact. Ifyou have had a significant incident, the manufacturer strongly recommends immediatereplacement of the belts. Also, make absolutely sure that your safety harness is totally securedand that you have pulled the straps as tight as possible anytime you drive the car.

SFI rated padding required within12-inches of the driver’s helmet. No non SFI rated padding permitted.4) Arm restraints and helmet supports on the seat.5) Interior door pads, tunnel pads and door pads.

Upon entering a Legends Car for competition any car may be checked for engine, chassis, oil,fuel, tires, wheels, rear ends or sound legality at any time by an INEX official or representative.Upon entering a Legends Car for INEX sanctioned competition, the driver (and possibly theowner) is responsible for the legality of their car and will suffer all penalties resulting with theLegends Car violating these rules. Refusal to submit a car, engine or parts for inspection ormeasurement upon the request of an INEX tech inspector in a timely manner will result inan immediate disqualification and may lead to a minimum two week suspension for carowner, car and driver. A greater or lesser penalty may be applied at the discretion of thetech staff.

No equipment or racecar will be considered as having been approved by reason of having passedthrough inspection “unobserved.” Regardless of a Legends Car passing prior inspections,compliance with all rules must be made at each post-race inspection. No expressed or impliedwarranty of safety shall result from the technical inspection or approval.

If this rulebook does not specifically say that you can change/modify/add something, then you

must consider that the change/modification/addition is illegal. Any questions about the legalityof a change/modification/addition not covered in this rulebook, must be answered by INEX inwriting and presented to the tech inspector upon request. If you have a request for achange/modification/addition, please contact INEX before making thechange/modification/addition.

Enforcement of Specification Rules: All INEX-approved weighing, measuring and testingdevices used by the INEX tech officials are the standards, which will determine compliance withthe rules and regulations. A competitor’s equipment, gauge or instrument, unless approved by theINEX inspector will have no bearing on the enforcement of these rules.

Enforcement and Infraction Penalties of the Ride Height, Wheelbase and Width RulesAfter qualifying or after a race, if a car is found to be in violation of the ride height, wheelbase orwidth rule, only if requested, the driver may have five (5) minutes to find the reason why the rideheight, wheelbase or width does not meet the rules. It is the driver’s responsibility to find thereason (such as a bent part) before the car leaves the tech area. It is not the tech inspector’sresponsibility to find the reason. If a reason cannot be found and the car leaves the tech area, thedriver cannot bring it back to the tech inspector showing or explaining a damaged part whichaffected the ride height, wheelbase or width. This must all be done within the tech area andwithin the specified time period.

If no reason (such as damaged parts) can be found, this will result in an immediatedisqualification from that event. A driver will be disqualified if a car was just improperly set up.If a driver is disqualified from a qualifying event (time trials or heats), they may fix theinfraction, however they must start at the rear of the next race (either a consolation race orfeature race - depending on the format).

For example, if an infraction is found during time trials, the driver would receive no time. If theinfraction is found after the heat or consolation races, the driver would be placed to the rear of

that race. If the infraction is found after the feature, the driver would be disqualified.

14.6 ENGINE CLAIMING PROCEDURE for LEGENDS CARSThe purpose of the claim is to provide a “safety valve” to help keep the series competitive and tokeep the cost of racing affordable. Only drivers (or legal guardian) that are current INEXmembers may claim an engine after the race for the amount designated in terms of cash orcertified check. That person must show their membership card to submit a claim. The SlingerSpeedway staff and management reserve the right to disallow any claim at any time forunspecified reasons.

14.6.1 Positions that May Claim a 1200 EngineAny driver (or legal guardian representing the driver) finishing in the top ten positions in theevent and on the lead lap of the feature event may claim a 1200 engine from a top five finisherwithin the same race. Should there be more than one claim to an engine, the driver in the highestfinishing position has the first right to the engine claim.

14.6.2 Time of the ClaimIn order to file a claim, the claimer must stop their car at the designated technical inspection areaprior to going to their trailer in the pit area. At this time the claimer must notify the INEXtechnical inspector of their intentions to file a claim. The membership card, claim card, and fullpayment must be presented to the INEX tech inspector no later than ten (10) minutes after thefinish of the race. Once a claim is made, it may not be withdrawn. The serial number on thecasing of the engine must be written on the claim card by the chief tech inspector immediatelyfollowing the claim.

14.6.3 Components of the Engine ClaimOnly the top five feature finisher’s engines including carburetors, alternator, and starter may be

claimed. Not included in the engine claim are the ignition electrical components, ignition box,coils, header, oil cooler, remote filter, sprocket adaptor, clutch slave cylinder, and air ducts.

14.6.4 Claim PaymentCash or check (certified is preferred) in the amount of $5,100 (or equivalent foreign funds) alongwith a claim card must be presented to the tech inspector. The tech inspector must produce (butnot give) the payment to the claimee before the engine is removed. All checks shall be made outto the claimee for the proper amount written clearly and legibly (unless “Option B” is chosen -then the check shall be made out and given to INEX, Corp.). A claim made by a personal checkwill require that the engine be held by the technical inspector or an authorized representative ofINEX until it clears the bank of the claimee. The claimee must deposit that check within three (3)days of the claim. If the technical inspector is not notified of the clearing of the check withinseven (7) days, it will be assumed that the check did clear the bank and the “held” engine will beturned over to the claimer. If the check of the claimer does not clear the bank (returned to theclaimee after the deposits it within three days of the claim), the claimer will be suspendedindefinitely and fined for an amount to be determined by INEX.

14.6.5 Choice of the Claimed EngineAt the time of the claim, the claimer must choose on the claim card either “Option A” or “OptionB”.

14.6.5.1 “Option A”The claimer takes immediate delivery of the claimed engine (should the payment be cash orcertified check to the claimee). If a personal check is used, the engine is held for seven days bythe technical inspector or INEX tech official until the check clears the account of the claimee.The claimer is then responsible for the legality of that engine.

14.6.5.2 “Option B”The claimer may choose to have the INEX tech inspector send the claimed engine to INEXheadquarters (or an INEX-approved inspection site-determined by the Executive Director) forinspection for an additional fee of $250 (payable to INEX). The INEX representative at the trackwill be responsible for holding the engine until the time of shipment. The claimer must pay forshipping charges and inspection fee and the engine must be sent to INEX within seven (7) daysof the claim. If the engine is not at the INEX inspection site within seven (7) days, the paymentwill be given to the claimee and the engine will not be checked for legality. The engine willbecome the property of the claimer immediately.

Upon inspection of the claimed engine, if the claimed engine is found illegal in any way, thecheck for $5,100 will be returned to the claimer (who is still responsible for shipping charges tothe inspection) and the illegal engine components will become the property of INEX. Legalcomponents of the engine will be returned only at the discretion of INEX and at the expense ofthe claimee. The claimee may also be fined and must pay all fines prior to the legal componentsbeing returned. The driver also faces possible additional penalties by INEX.

If the claimed engine is found legal, the owner of the engine being claimed receives the $5,100

and the engine will be sent to the claimer (who is responsible for the shipping charges of theengine’s shipment).

14.6.6 Refusal of a ClaimIf the claimee refuses to sell the engine after a legitimate claim, he will be disqualified and notallowed to run that engine again for a 12-month period. Once a refusal of the claim is made, itmay not be rescinded. The engine must then be turned over to the technical director or INEXauthorized representative immediately and sent to INEX headquarters to be held during the12-month period of time. That engine will also be disassembled and inspected at the expense ofthe owner. That driver and car owner may be suspended for an indefinite period of time (to bedetermined by INEX) if the engine is not immediately relinquished. The driver will also forfeitall cash winnings for the feature, points for that race, any trophies earned for the feature andpossibly ALL points earned for the season at the discretion of INEX.

14.6.7 Removal of the Claimed EngineThe claimed engine shall be removed immediately from the car by the team being claimed. Anysabotage to the engine by the removal team will result in that driver and car owner beingsuspended for two (2) months and a $500 fine will result. The claim will also be nullified byINEX and the claim money will be returned to the claimer. The person claiming the engine maynot leave the track until the engine is removed, turned over to him or in the possession of theINEX tech inspector and he agrees that no sabotage has occurred. If the claimer leaves beforethe above items are satisfied, the claim will be nullified.

* INEX may penalize a claimer deemed to be malicious, spiteful, or who otherwise acts inbad faith. A driver may claim no more than one engine during the calendar year.
